Second half of the poetry terms. Make up this quiz ASAP if you missed it.
Then there was an in-class poetry reading/study assignment. I'm describing it here for the convenience of those who were absent. There is no written product to be turned in, but it will behoove you to do this before Monday.
1) Read Chapter 15. Pause to study Keats' "Bright Star" on p. 491.
2) Read/study two additional poems from the text: Wordworth's ""The World's Too Much .. ." (619), and
Gerard Manley Hopkins' "God's Grandeur" (546).
FOR MONDAY
- If you did the poetry work in class, there is no further poetry homework for the week-end. The in-class timed write (40 minutes, not an informal "quick-write") is skills-based. All of the other poems are preparation, but they're not what you'll write on--so there shouldn't be any special study required if you're caught up on Ch.11-15 and the new poems from today.
- Tess benchmark for Monday: be finished with Phase the Third. There will be a short reading check quiz after the timed write.
